  • Google Earth’s New AI Lets Anyone Fabricate Completely Bullshit Satellite Images

    Jump

  • This is old news; backlash was immediate and the "feature" was rescinded.

  • Maybe a better Threadiverse Major Defederations Graph?

    Jump

  • In addition to comments others have made about some of the colors being difficult to see/differentiate, I think it would be worthwhile to distinguish one-way defederation from mutual defederation, perhaps with a texture?

    It would make the graphic busier, but I also would enjoy seeing population percentages next to each instance name (to give weight to the significance of certain defederations, e.g. how much of the fediverse are you excluding by defederating with hexbear vs lemmy.world).

  • Jucika's exciting book

    Jump

  • What date was this published? Jucika looks different.

  • What's a fun piece of free software I should learn to use this week?

  • If that's too basic/open ended, learn to animate in Krita.

  • Then you spend the rest of the movie with greasy, gritty fingers, an odd taste in your mouth, and a wayward kernel stuck between your teeth.

    No thanks; I keep my popcorn eating to home movie watching, where I can pause to wash my hands, refill the snack tray, and floss my teeth if needed.

  • Did you know Edward Bernays, nephew of Sigmund Freud, is widely recognized as the father of modern propaganda and public relations.

    Jump

  • No, I did not know.

    I'm sorry, what community is this supposed to be, again?

  • I can’t be the only one right?

  • Drake meme? That's a downvote...

    (This format has so. many. alternatives. by now, there's no excuse)

  • Mormon Senator praised Trump and Pete Hegseth. The new Pentagon policy bans Mormons from the list of recognized Christian denominations. Now he is outraged.

    Jump

  • The title is bordering on misinformation. They didn't "ban" Mormons; they re-categorized them to no longer fall under the Christian umbrella.

  • do you guys have some music recommendations

    Jump

  • I don't know if this is exactly what you're looking for, but give the Confused bi-Product of a Misinformed Culture channel a perusal. He does a few different genres of mixes, including what I would consider psy-trance, although it might require a little digging through the archives to find your precise jam.

  • Why won't you have kids??

    Jump

  • no problem on Earth is a result of the population being too high.

    Pre-industrial humans caused mass habitat loss, species extinction, and even climate change, and that was with their relatively miniscule populations and emissions. What quality of life are you imagining over eight billion people having such that we somehow don't continue wrecking the environment? And how do you plan on putting the genie back in the bottle regarding all our polluting technological "advancements" that require fossil fuels and/or intensive mining? Who's declaring to the world that plastics, electricity, and all forms of motorized technology are over, and how do you imagine this would be enforced?

    Even completely stripped of all our technology, humans are still animals, and any animal species will wreak havoc on their environment when overpopulated. Hell you don't even have to be an animal; go look up the Great Oxygenation Event or what happened when trees first evolved. What do you suppose Earth is going to be like for the millions of years required for it to adapt to the changes we're making? Unlike monocellular organisms and plants, however, we are sapient creatures; if we can observe this is happening and know we're the ones causing it, how is it not in any way a moral issue?

  • If you could see one statistic above every person's head, that is updated in real time and never goes away, what would you choose?

  • Female US rower completes historic solo journey from California to Hawaii

  • The rowing society’s online records showed on Saturday morning that Pfendler finished in just under 44 days, faster than the previous comparable female record-holder’s 86 days or the male record holder’s 52 days as recorded by both the society and Guinness World Records.

  • [Serious] What are some advantages of being over 40 years old and getting older?

    Jump

  • Luck is a big part of it too. Start developing a chronic illness in your 20s/30s? Get ready for a lifetime of dealing with it and its knockoff effects and the various other ailments associated with getting older. Or maybe you're fine but your spouse isn't, and instead of supporting each other as you age it's the two of you just trying to manage their condition.

  • What's one book everyone should read at least once in their lifetime?

    Jump

  • 1984, so that people mentioning it online will stop sounding like complete fucking idiots.

    Or perhaps The Jungle; it sparked public outcry and major overhauls the last time it became popular, maybe it can work its magic again.

    Love to see it. This is what should happen when you don't pass the baton.
